The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 384
Bai Jinxiu came in from the gate, still dressed in white, walking hurriedly.

Jiang Chuan went out to welcome her, stood at the door and watched her walking towards him, and laughed: "You are always in such a hurry, the sky won't fall if I'm here. Haven't eaten yet, let's talk about it first."

Bai Jinxiu laughed, and the trace of tiredness on her face seemed to disappear instantly. She looked into his eyes and nodded slightly.

Jiang Chuan smiled and stretched out his hand to her. She hesitated for a while and stretched out her hand, and walked into the room holding both hands.

After ordering the guards to bring water, she washed away the dust from the road in the next room, her whole body looked radiant, and she walked out in a radiant spirit.

"If you are a real man, all the women in this world will probably be crazy about you." Jiang Chuan looked at her delicate and fair face and laughed.

Bai Jinxiu's face turned red, and she looked even more charming and charming under the light that had just been lit.She glared at Jiang Chuan reproachfully: "They are all princes, and they still speak so incoherently."

Even so, there was a sweet smile in his eyes.

"There are many identities in a person's life. Different occasions and different people have different identities. People can achieve an identity, but they can't let the identity be bound. In front of you, I am me, you are you, and everything else is false." Jiang Chuan Although he smiled, his tone was serious.

Bai Jinxiu was a little surprised, she opened her eyes wide and looked at him, as if she had sensed something, but she only saw sincerity in his eyes.

But she is a smart woman after all. After thinking about it, she said: "I heard about Liu Fangliang. He seeks benevolence and wins benevolence. You love talents and cherish talents. You have done what you want to do. As you said just now, Everyone has their own identity, and what they do must be worthy of their own identity. If you do what you have to do, whether you succeed or not depends on God's will."

Jiang Chuan was grateful in his heart. He knew that she was consoling him, nodded and said seriously: "I didn't think it through at first, but now I have figured it out. There are nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in life. Do your best and obey the destiny."

Bai Jinxiu looked at him, and a ray of worry in his heart dissipated.

The personal guard served the meal, and the two ate together.

No one spoke during the meal, but Jiang Chuan looked up at her after taking a few mouthfuls, only to find that she was also looking at him, their eyes met, Bai Jinxiu's pretty face blushed instantly, she hurriedly lowered her head and continued to pretend to be eating .

This kind of scene happened before when I first met my girlfriend in college. Men and women in the passionate love period can't wait to keep their eyes on each other's faces.

Since coming to this world, the thing that hangs on my mind most every day is the battle.There are very few times when it is so warm and peaceful, even the two birds on the elm tree in the yard are no longer noisy.

After the two finished their meal, they started talking about business.

"I came back this time mainly for two things. The first thing is to verify that the Dashun Army does indeed have a large amount of grain and grass in Jinan Prefecture, and more grain and grass are transported from Wuzhou and Yuezhou through the canal. Jinan There are at least [-] defenders in the mansion, and the defender is Li Zicheng's general Qin Huaiyi. It is said that this person was entrusted with important tasks because of his prudence and meticulousness."

Bai Jinxiu told Jiang Chuan what he had heard.

In fact, this news had already been learned from the captives, and now that Bai Jinxiu said it, it would be even more confirmed.

Jiang Chuan pondered for a while, and asked, "Have you checked whether the Dashun Army has a navy?"

"Probably not. After I sneaked into Jinan Mansion with my people, I tried various channels and methods, but found no sign of Li Zicheng owning a navy. All the grain transported by the Dashun Army from the south of the Yangtze River were civilian ships, and most of them were arranged on board." Some soldiers escorted them. And my men spent three days on the pier as coolies, so I can confirm this."

Hearing this, Jiang Chuan was completely relieved, and said with a smile: "Since they don't have a navy, they will be a turtle in a urn. When our navy blocks the waterway and the army surrounds Jinan City, it will be difficult for them to survive." escaped."

Bai Jinxiu nodded, was silent for a while, and then continued: "Judging from the current battles of the Dashun Army, it is indeed nothing to worry about. But I think we have to guard against the other side."

Jiang Chuan raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "You mean Japanese pirates?"

Bai Jinxiu nodded solemnly: "This is the second thing I want to tell you. This time I met some refugees around Jinan Prefecture, and after asking, I found out that they escaped from Yuezhou all the way. The entire Yuezhou had already surrendered to the Dashun army. However, the Dashun Kingdom didn’t have enough officials to manage these places, so the original officials of the Ming Dynasty changed into officials of the Dashun.”

"However, the main force of the Dashun Army went northward not long after, and those who stayed to maintain the place were some original local soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. As a result, within a few days of the Dashun Army's northward march, more than a dozen counties in the three prefectures of Yuezhou were attacked by Japanese pirates." attack."

"These Japanese pirates are cruel and cunning, and it is said that the artillery fire is fierce, and they are not afraid of death. Those local soldiers are not opponents at all. And once these Japanese pirates break through the city, they will kill all the officials first, and hang their bodies on the trees on the city wall. They also raped and plundered, committed all kinds of crimes. Many men in the captured cities were almost killed, and most of the women were taken away by disasters. These beasts even spared young girls and old women. In addition, they In one place, the government treasury and granaries will definitely be robbed first."

When Bai Jinxiu said this, his face was covered with frost, his body was trembling, and he felt like he was gnashing his teeth, which was the expression of extreme anger.

She was originally a disciple of the Baiyun Sect, and the purpose of the Baiyun Sect was to punish the wicked in the world. How could she not be angry when she heard about such things?
Jiang Chuan stretched out his right hand to gently hold her little hand, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't let these pirates go. I will make them repay ten times and a hundred times the evil they have done. Let me ask you, Did these Japanese pirates loot every time they broke through a city, and then retreated quickly, never defending the city?"

Being held by Jiang Chuan's warm big hand, Bai Jinxiu gradually calmed down. She tried her best to stabilize her tone, nodded and said, "That's right, that's it. Those people don't know much about it, but I have compiled their news. After a while, I came to a general conclusion that there are several groups of these Japanese pirates. Their lairs are all at sea, and they come by boat every time they dispatch, and then leave quickly by boat after doing some harm. When the soldiers came, they had already retreated to the sea."

　There is one more.
